Interactive and Intelligent NFTs that you can train and talk to sound like something from the distant future. But that future is already here and it’s frankly a game changer. So Roll over Bored Apes! Meet The Intelligent Yeti-Apes Club by BRIGHTNFT.
BRIGHTNFT founder was gracious to give us an excellent exclusive interview about this brave new world of interactive and Intelligent NFTs that are about to shake things up.

Physicist, AI specialist and founder of BRIGHT NFT
Question: BEEPLE (Mike Winkelmann) in a recent interview mentioned that the future of NFTs is utility and emotional appeal. BRIGHT NFT ticks those boxes and more. How and why did you come up with the idea of interactive AI Voice Assistant NFTs?
Answer: I was thinking about solving a problem that I found with NFTs related to utility. If NFTs can be
used as a unique certification of a digital object, then it could certainly be used to certify the
ownership of an intelligent avatar. On the other hand, I wanted to create an avatar with which people can interact in a simple way, and a voice assistant system is simple to use. I think it’s
a good idea to be able to turn your favorite pfp NFT into an animated friend trained by you.

Question: How important is human and AI symbiosis in your work?
Answer: My work as a physicist does not involve AI applications which are centered on people, but I believe that human-centered AI is the best thing in which I can put on my skills and
compromise to work. Our life is shaped by technology, and AI is one of the most important
technologies of our times, so it makes sense that its development must be done in close
connection with human interactions. Technologies like this must be developed with a vision centered around the human condition.

Question:You have a very diverse team at BRIGHT NFTS. That is very inspiring to see. Is diversity a
big part of your DNA at BRIGHT NFT?
Answer: At BRIGHT NFT we have people collaborating across 5 continents, so we breathe diversity and inclusion, these are part of the core values of our Web3 project. Talent is scattered
around all the world, and we have the goal of building something that helps onboarding all of the people. Eliminating absurd barriers is something that makes projects and companies
much stronger and it has been a great experience for all of us.

Question:Vitalik Buterin has been talking about SBTs that can’t be transferred and are wallet bound as the next evolution of NFTs. Will BRIGHT NFT be wallet bound or transferable or both?
Answer: SBTs are a great innovation that will eventually disrupt the blockchain space, however the combination of tech and talent available is still not there to use SBTs right now. Because of this, in principle a Yeti-Ape NFT will be transferable. However, as the project evolves, it
would be ideal to incorporate this tech for the right use, and I think this use should be related
to those applications of AI NFTs which are trained to be digital twins of real people.

Question: Web3 is decentralization at its core. What do you think about the future of Web3 and the so called metaverse in say 10 years from now?
Answer : 10 years from now things will be very different because massive adoption will probably take place. DAOs will be mature enough to become a main alternative to those looking to work online, and this will have a profound impact on our society for the better. By that time, most
of the internet will be crypto native and people around the world will have a broader access
to services on the internet and the Metaverse. Decentralization will become a major issue for
brands and companies, and at the very least, young people will prefer ownership over the
complications of migrating to new platforms. Therefore, those companies that don’t adapt to
this new reality will eventually disappear or lose a massive amount of users.

Question: Can you elaborate about your learn to earn and train to earn program on your BNFT platform that you
are building?
Answer: Learn-to-Earn it’s a game mode in which you will get trained by your Yeti-Ape NFT on a
specific subject, for example, how to market NFTs. In this game you will have to answer a
couple of questions to demonstrate your knowledge after the lessons, and upon completion
the users will earn token rewards that can be used within our ecosystem or trade for fiat /
crypto.
Train-to-Earn it’s another game mode in which you train your Yeti-Ape NFT for a specific
purpose, for example, marketing content creation. After the training you can test the learning
progress of your NFT and earn token rewards based on the time spent for the training.

Question: You are developing your own token, the BNFT Token. What role will it play in BRIGHT NFT and beyond?
Answer: The BNFT token will be used to provide rewards in our platform by learning with the basic courses, interacting and creating content, connecting with new people, training your Yeti-Ape NFT, and staking your tokens. On the other hand, users can spend their tokens on
purchasing advanced courses, customize their NFTs and mint new ones, unlock new AI
features for their NFTs, and pay the fees resulting from transactions within our ecosystem.

Question: On which platform will BRIGHT NFT debut and how can the public keep touch for the initial drop?
Answer: We are very early as a project, and we are currently in the process of negotiating with
several big Blockchains such as Polygon and Avalanche. We certainly would like to work
with a platform that is Ethereum based or at least compatible with it. Although we still don’t
have a date for the drop, but the public can stay up to date with us by following our twitter
account and joining our server. We also held twitter spaces to bring awareness of several
relevant topics on Web3.

Question: You are an AI expert and Elon Musk has warned of a potential dystopian AI future if AI is not well regulated. What are your thoughts on this?
Answer: It’s very difficult to regulate AI. I think that probably the most practical thing to do is to set auditors to the large datasets that control the most powerful algorithms that impact people’s
lives. The first problem to solve in that sense is to make sure that human biases are not carried over to the AI, that’s where most of the danger comes from. One thing for sure is that
AI is currently shaping our lives in a way we can’t even imagine, and the harm will come first
from unethical training of algorithms.

Question: When you are not working on complex and adaptive AI systems, how do you relax?
Answer: I like to be in contact with nature, it helps clean my mind. Here in Spain there’s plenty of mountains, waterfalls, and places to go hiking, so whenever I can I like to pay a visit. I also
love to spend time with my family and friends, either in the real world or online.

Question:Your thoughts on the Madonna Vagina NFTs that she produced with Bepple?
Answer: Well, although the final product it’s a little bit disturbing, I’m glad to see two innovators
working together, and more importantly, I’m glad that the proceeds from the sale will benefit nonprofits. Famous people like Madonna and Bepple can sell whatever they wish, so using
this power to do good is something that I’ll always support.
